I like the str_chr_freq suggestion, any objections to that?
What about char_freq()? Slightly shorter...
I like that better than the str_chr_freq() one. Except that 'frequency' is incorrect here. Frequency means how often something occurs per an instance of something else. This is just a simple count.
How about "How often does the character ("something") occur per an instance of the string ("something else")." Anyway, it's not like I'm hooked on it. I just didn't like the str_chr_freq() and the count_char() vs. count_chars() one. Andi --- Andi Gutmans <andi@zend.com> http://www.zend.com/
